Lol. I added that comment just before pushing the add replay button and i obviously wrote it in the second box of the page instead of in the first.Big Magilla wrote:Just out of curiosity, how did the comment about Made in Dagenham get into my quote? I may have said that if I had seen the film, but since I didn't...
If you catch "Made in Dagenham" i'm sure you'll like the costumes too.

Sabin, he may have made a feature 12 years ago, but he was determined to be eligible because that film never saw theatrical release. Showing at film festivals does not count as theatrical release.
Lesley Manville may have been the product of category confusion, something we may rectify in future years if the membership is amenable.

I Am Love may not be an excellent film, but it had wonderful cinematography, editing and art direction. The same goes for Vincere: wonderful cinematography, art direction, costume design and a good perfromance by Fillippo Timi who i liked more than the adored in this board Mezzogiorno. I had problems with it's screenplay though.Big Magilla wrote:As far I Am Love goes, I am happy to say I am one of the snubbers. The film was a bore. The Italian film that should have been nomianted, but wasn't is Vincere, but that's probably due to the majority fo the voters not having seen it. Also delighted with "Made In Dagenham" making the Costumes top5.
I am sad that Manville didn't make it. She deserved a nod. It was wonderful to see Emma Stone making the cut, she was in my ballot. Also happy to see the first greek film nominated by OFTA. Best of luck to "Dogtooth" in the Oscars nominations morning.

Another Year finally opened in my neck of the woods on Friday, but I had other things to do the last few days and it would have been too late anyway.
I voted for Nicole Kidman, but I suspect, this is again a performance that wasn't seen by a lot of people. I am glad that four of my choices for Best Actor and Supporting Actor made the cut.
Emma Stone in Best Actress was a surprise, but a welcome one.
